Bacon & Bok Choy

I was recently looking through all 200 of my saved recipes from www.allrecipes.com, (love that site), that I collected over the years prior to becoming primal. I was curious to see if I would find anything that might fit into my new lifestyle. Although I didn’t come away with much, I managed to add a few more recipes to the primal stash. The jewel of the bounty is this delicious dish of bacon and bok choy!

I used to serve this dish over rice but on it’s own it makes a great side dish. The red pepper flakes give it a bit of a kick, which I love and the bok choy adds a fresh taste in combination with the bacon. If you’re looking for a new and interesting side dish, I highly recommend this one…

Ingredients

4 slices of bacon

2 pounds of baby bok choy or regular bok choy

1 teaspoon of olive oil

1/2 small red onion thinly sliced

1 tsp red pepper flakes

1 tsp minced garlic

salt to taste

Instructions

Fry bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crispy.

Remove bacon and drain the fat, reserving one tablespoon of the grease in the skillet.

Add the olive oil, onion, red pepper flakes and garlic.

Cook and stir over medium heat until the onions are starting to be tender.

Add the bok choy, and place a lid on the pan. Let cook for 3 to 5 minutes.

Remove the lid; cook and stir until the bok choy is tender but still crunchy, about 2 minutes.
